Self-Defined Style: 
American Pale Wheat Ale
Strength (ABV): 
5.0% ABV

Choc brand beer is brewed in small batches in our brewery using the finest ingredients. Starting with beer-perfect Krebs water, we blend American Malted Barley, wheat, adn roasted malts with American-grown Libery and Cascade hops to creat more than just a beer... a legendary Choc beer is unfiltered, so all of the flavor we create stays where it belongs. And since it's unfiltered, you may notice a cloudy haze in the beer. This is normal.

Brewed By: 
Lakefront Brewery
Self-Defined Style: 
Belgian White
Strength (ABV): 
4.6% ABV

Our version of a Belgian classic, brewed with wheat malt and spiced with coriander and orange peel. Pours a beautiful hazy blond-gold with a thick pearly white head. The nose is yeasty with a light aroma of fruit and spice. This beer is as crisp and refreshing as the aroma implies, with the wheat malt supplying a full, somewhat sweet background to the orange and coriander flavor. Spritzy carbonation lifts the sweetness to lend a crisp finish. A great beer for a warm summer day.

Best With: 
Great with Belgian moules frites (steamed, buttered mussels and French fries) or charcuterie. The crisp carbonation in our White can cut through even the richest, creamiest dishes.

Self-Defined Style: 
American Wheat Ale
Strength (ABV): 
4.2% ABV

Wheat Monkey Ale captures the fresh, unfiltered spontaneity of our brewers' creativity. Crisp and refreshing year-round, this American Wheat Ale pours a lazy, hazy golden color. Its large, white, foamy head can be attributed to the generous amount of malted white wheat added to the mash. The aroma is enhanced by our fruity house ale yeast and its fresh baked bread flavors are perfectly balanced with a Cascade hop addition. This easy drinking wheat beer pairs well with a wide range of foods, such as green salads, feta and gouda cheeses, steamed or baked seafood, and grilled chicken.

Best With: 
The refreshing citrus and spice character and delicate mouth feel of wheat beer makes it a great accompaniment to boiled veal weisswurst, lighter fish such as mahi-mahi, and salads made with citrus based dressing.
